A varied diet will help keep him healthy.
This place has plenty of feeders, though you'll want to rely more on the better ones like silkworms, hornworms, dubias and go easy on the waxworms and superworms. Mealworms are typically avoided due to a reported risk of impaction.

Gutloading the feeders--basically feeding the feeders healthy foods, gives your cham more nutrition from his diet.

Though a few mealworms has never done any harm I've ever seen, they are a bit high fat and chitin to use as a 'main' feeder.
I have heard of breeders raising generations of chams just rotating mealworms and crickets.........the more variety the better though, I'm sure

I view it with some skepticism, hence the qualifier "reported risk of impaction".
Rather than possibly proving the theory, I stay away from the mealworms and use as broad a variety of feeders as I can.
I know my health would be rather poor if I only ate 1 or 2 foods and popped a daily vitamin to try to compensate

Haha I can understand what you mean. Remember you are an omnivore though. If a chams feeder insects are gutloaded with variety itmakes a big difference.

Just wanted to point out- if the "shaking" is really like a vibration- that is a normal thing. Veileds send vibrations out along limbs to communicate with nearby chameleons. Can feel or even sometimes sound like kind of like a purr.
